The place of the Qing Dynasty is in the Shahai, but it is not within the Bianliang Palace, but in a house in the southwest.

This courtyard belongs to Shaofu and is considered a small warehouse. It has been cleared out now and serves as a place for discussion.

Just like last year, the people around Shao Xun were not changed, and Yan and Li were accompanying him.

Before entering the venue, Shao Xunxian visited a windmill with eight-sided sails one-sided windmill with great enthusiasm.

It’s a pity that I’m still in the construction state, and the progress is worrying and I can’t move at all, so I feel a little overwhelmed.

"It's been a year-" Zhao Shaoxun looked at Yang Ben, who was a little pale, stretched out two fingers and said, "There are two years left."

"Yes." Yang Ben replied in a row.

Shao Xun patted his shoulder and said, "No need to be nervous, I just remind you. I heard that four of the gangsters are already pregnant?"

Yang Ben lowered his head embarrassedly.

"You are still a young man. You are so terrifying, and so terrifying." Shao Xun exclaimed.

"Just don't miss the matter." Shao Xun said, "The north wind is howling today. If the windmill is built, can it be ground into the surface?"

Yang Ben thought for a while and said, "Maybe."

Shao Xun nodded and said nothing. This kid was not very confident.

Some principles of windmills and waterwheels are the same.

Why are there so many lakes and ponds built in Jingu Garden and connected to each other?

First, it is to see the scenery, raise fish, and raise aquatic plants, and second, it is to avoid extreme situations, such as sudden floods, excessive flow rates, or drought and dry water.

The water in these lakes flows down through the excavated channels to drive the hydraulic mill spring rice. The channel has a professional term in the history of hydraulic machinery development: power channel.

The lake pond has a water storage function, which artificially regulates unfavorable factors such as different flow rates and different flow rates of upstream water. It can also intercept silt and sand, so that the flow rate in the power channel is as constant as possible and maintain the normal operation of the machine.

However, the wind is not easy to accumulate, so how to adjust the speed is a problem, which requires a transmission mechanism.

Of course, it is not impossible to use without transmission. It can also be achieved by adjusting the force area and angle of the sail, using "brakes" to increase mechanical friction and adjusting the counterweight. There are many methods.

Shao Xun only came up with the idea of ​​adjusting Fengfan, but he didn't say it out, wanting to see how the young man solved it.

However, he still hit Yang Ben and heard him say, "In ancient times, the imperial court has cracked down on powerful people to set up water trucks and cut off water and then fertilized them. Therefore, there are many restrictions on this thing, which is difficult to promote the whole world. However, the windmills are different, and I have high hopes. If you give more snacks, my things are not that easy to take."

Yang Zhi's face was a little pale, I don't know if it was scared or his body was weak.

Shao Xun got in the car and left.

Yang Xianrong, Shan Yinan sat opposite him, one left and one right.

Yang Yang's face was not very good, and he stared at Yang Ben from the gap in the car window and looked again and again.

Shan Yinan was thinking, as if she was thinking about whether this story is worthy of "The New Words of the World". She thought it was quite funny. The funny point was not on the windmill, but the boy in the Yang family was indulging in women and losing his body. However, that was painful and boring. Why did so many people want it?

Before Shan Yinan could think about it, Shao Xun said directly: "Yinan can write this story in it."

After saying that, he talked about the whole story before getting off the bus.

The two women wore a hat to cover their faces, entered from the side door, and sat behind the screen.

A palace man brought pen, ink, paper and ink.

Yang Xianrong smiled and said, "This book is only two anecdotes, all about him."

"I have written a few stories about Jiangnan." Shan Yinan said.

"Who is writing?"

"One is an old thing when crossing the river in my early years, called "forbidden", one is to look at the killing of the guards, and the other is that Yang Xianrong is about to say something, but the sound of silk and bamboo sounds sounded in front of him.

*******

Li sat on the right and looked at the emperor and sister-in-law Yan on the left.

She always felt that something had happened between the two.

Without any evidence, it was just a feeling, because every move and every word and action between them was different from before. She couldn't explain this feeling. To put it bluntly, her sister-in-law seemed to try her best to hide something.

But too much is too little, it seems like guilty.

In short, over-covering!

"Have you received it?" Shao Xun glanced at everyone and asked with a smile.

"Thank you for your reward, I have already made a small garment yesterday and put it on." Hua Yingzhi said.

Shao Xun was shocked, so brave?

"How?" he asked.

"It's a bit pissing." Hua Yingzhi said.

Shao Xun smiled slightly after hearing this and said, "The hair is short and thick and hard, so it is thrust. You can't wear it as an inner garment, you have to wear it outside."

"Your Majesty said so much. I will wear it on my silk clothes today, and it's much better." Hua Yingzhi said.

"Is the foot warm?"

"The clothes are as gentle as spring."

"Good." Shao Xun said, "But now that the price is high, it cannot enter thousands of households. Can you teach me?"

"Your Majesty, this matter is easy. In the Han Dynasty, more than 100,000 yuan, but now it costs 50,000 yuan, which is less than 20,000 yuan. Yesterday, I went to the silk store to ask for the price. It only costs 20,000 yuan, and it is only a small amount of money. If you weave more, the price will be cheaper. In time, one thousand yuan and hundreds of yuan are common things."

"It makes sense." Shao Xun nodded slightly, and then said, "However, there are not many people in weaving, only Puyang, Yecheng, and Luoyang. The big head is still sold by the Shaofu. What if it does?"

Speaking of this, if you don’t understand it, you will be stupid.

Hua Yingzhi immediately said, "Your Majesty, I will leave to the plain tomorrow. I will persuade my clan members to set up a weaving workshop. Shao Xun immediately turned to look at the invited chief of the Siyuan, Pu Gu Chengen, and said, "Pu Guqing, Hua Hu wants to weave the plains. Do you have wool for sale in your home?"

"It should be." Pu Gu Chengen said, "I received a letter from my brother before, and I was still asking people in the Central Plains if they bought wool? Not only wool (wool), cashmere (cashmere, with less yield), but also camel wool."

"Oh? And camel hair?" Shao Xun asked.

"It's true, it's much longer than wool." Pu Gu Chengen said.

"This is a good thing," said Shao Xun.

According to him, camel hair can be found in two types: fine hair and thick hair on the inner layer, which is warmer than wool because the living environment of camels is harsh and colder.

Moreover, the length of wool fibers is much longer than that of wool and is more wear-resistant. The only disadvantage is that the yield is smaller. After all, every tribe has cattle, sheep and horses, but not camels. Even if there are, there are not many, and there are no demands.

"I'm afraid this thing is going to Kujiesha to search for it." Shao Xun said, "I heard that some tribes cannot collect enough horse and leather tribute, so they need to be exchanged with cattle and sheep, which is very bitter. In the future, it may be able to get the camel velvet and camel hair."

"Your Majesty is wise." The servant said kindly.

Shao Xun laughed, raised his wine glass and said, "We have set up workshops for me, but now it's expensive. You can make a lot of money by weaving one-fourths. If you do it slowly and the price goes down, you won't make much money."

As the saying goes, things are rare and precious.

In the Liu Bang era, he regarded it as a high-end luxury product, but in the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was still very expensive and could not be used by only a prince.

It was not cheap during the Wei Pu period, so Emperor Wen of Wei also rewarded it as a valuable item to the "Crown Prince of Wu of the Great Wei Dynasty".

The Daliang Dynasty was much cheaper than the Han, Wei and Jin Dynasties, but a single piece of food was still not a mass commodity in units of tens of thousands of yuan.

If you rush to expand your production capacity, the price will slowly fall, and you may even collapse. However, the families who entered the market in the early stage can still make a lot of money. If you move slowly, you may not make any profit. The return period will be longer, and you can only rely on volume to slowly recover the cost.

This is actually Shao Xun’s purpose.

It is originally a mass consumer product, and it should not be a luxury that only princes can enjoy.

Flying into the homes of ordinary people is better than traditional cotton clothes to protect against cold, why not do it?

Of course, this grassland provides raw materials, and the processing and sales model of Zhongyuan is not without side effects.

The most important thing is that you may not want to buy grassland wool in the future.

The Chief of the Prairie: "What? You don't buy wool anymore? I'll fight with you and start a war!"

It sounds like a joke, but there are not many similar cases in history.

Shao Xun remembered that in order to quell the rebellion of the vassal states in the middle of the Tang Dynasty, the Tang court bought horses back. The number was very large and it was very urgent. The price of a horse was very good. The price of a horse floated between twenty to forty pieces of silk, with an average of more than thirty pieces of silk.

Because wars are frequent and horses are consumables, the demand is very high, so Huijuan people mix thin horses among good horses.

Tang Ting endured the sick horse, and at the peak, he spent 4 million silk to buy horses a year.

But after the war came to an end, there was no need for so many horses. The transaction became a burden, from the previous mutual benefit to Huijuan unilateral profit. Moreover, the proportion of the thin horses they sold was getting higher and higher, and the price could not be reduced, which made Tang Ting very distressed.

Because the vassal states may raise the anti-flag again at any time, and they are worried that they will force Huijuan to turn their backs on the horse, the transaction lasted for many years and did not stop until the situation is relatively stable.

Shao Xun couldn't help laughing when he thought that there might be a grassland Hu Ke who would launch a "wool war" in the future. Although it is unlikely, who can say it correctly?

But this matter still needs to be promoted.

If there is not even a related industry, how can technology improve?

Just like when Shao Xun asked Yang Benfeng before, the windmill could operate normally, but he actually wanted to ask if you would have gear transmission structures?

Sheep's blame certainly won't.

But if windmills become popular, they may not be able to be there any day.

All technological progress must be related to demand and industry.
